A national referral conversation
20 publicly listed teacher/studio contacts across 13 states. Focus matches are separated from broader supplemental-coaching candidates. These sources do not prove that a teacher currently has advanced students to refer.
Sources & coverage: public studio websites and professional teacher directories, reviewed October 11, 2026. This first pass is not an exhaustive national directory; email deliverability is untested. No outreach has been sent.
2027 OPERATING PLAN · PROPOSED BREAKS
Two semesters.
A sustainable musical year.
Summer / Fall 2027
July 5–January 2, 2028 · 26 calendar weeks
22 instructional weeks.
Proposed breaks: September 6–12; November 22–28; December 20–January 2.
Two two-week breaks + four one-week breaks = eight weeks off. These are proposed operating breaks and preserve the currently selected 2027 intensive dates. Monthly tuition reserves a recurring place across the term; the published final calendar and written enrollment terms should define instructional weeks and makeups.
| Course | Monthly | Six-month semester | Proposed 3% early payment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Advanced Private Study | $1,500 | $9,000 | $8,730 |
| Developing Virtuosos | $750 | $4,500 | $4,365 |
Monthly and semester tuition are available after placement confirmation. Spring 2027 early-payment links offer 3% off when paid by December 15, 2026; final term calendar and written enrollment arrangements should be confirmed before using them. June 15 is the proposed early-payment date for July entry.
Annual revenue scenarios
Gross planning scenarios, not profit forecasts. 44 operating weekends, $5,000 standard/vocalist participant tuition, $3,000 church-pianist tuition, and 12 months of private-study tuition. Costs, discounts, refunds, taxes, staffing and unfilled places are excluded.
2027 intensive cadence
Every operating Friday–Sunday is a candidate weekend. Existing published dates remain the bookable dates; the rest of this annual cadence is a draft.
